How to Find Current Foreign Newspaper Subscriptions

Currently received newspapers are shelved in the gray hanging folders by country and title in the Current Periodicals & Newspapers section on the first floor of Bostock Library.

Newspaper titles for which microfilm subscriptions are also received are retained in paper form (in most cases) until the film is received.  Microfilm is located in the microforms storage areas (Bostock first floor cabinets or Bostock 2nd floor shelves near the elevators) by call number order.  Please check the Bostock Microform Titles list to see where the item you wish to view is located.

Most indexes are located on the first floor of Bostock Library. Consult staff for specific location. Also refer to the printed guide, "Some Indexes to Non-U.S. Newspapers."
